Halloween!!!

It's Halloween again, and I don't have anything fun to do. I suppose I shall work on sketching and essay writing. At least I have some stowaway candy that managed to jump in my backpack when I wasn't looking (thanks mom).

So, there was an interesting and sad dream I had last night. I was with all the characters on the show Lost on their little uncharted island. Everytime I opened my cellphone to text Katelyn it didn't work. So the gang and I tromped through the jungle looking for stuff. All of a sudden a boat came and we were rescued. Everything should be happy right? Wrong. We all seem to be shunned by society. Everywhere we went everyone was mad at us for some reason. Then I saw Ted's family randomly so I walked over to see them. His dad kept trying to grope my butt. It was really weird so I punched him in the face. I met up with the rest of the castaways and talked to Jack, the leader of the Lost group and a doctor. He said he had to leave and go far away. So I asked for his phone number in case I needed a doctor. Weird. Feeling blue, I turned to my cellphone again and started to text Katelyn. To my alarm a shadowy figure with disgusting long, black, curly, and greasy hair, whom I'm not at liberty to identify but I think should get mauled, appeared and told me I was texting wrong and that I wasn't good at anything. I threw down my cellphone out of anger, the leaped at this horrible creature (very orc like) and then I woke up.

Happy Halloween!!!

Matt Bashing

I just wanted to set the record straight. All of this talk about Matt has been in good fun and was not meant literally. The events in previous posts regarding Matt are exagerated for humor. I'm sorry if this confuses anyone due to the fact that Matt and I aren't getting along very well. Never would I seriously talk behind someone's back, even if they talk behind mine.

Well I'm off to do some more sketching.

Goodbye all yee liberal scally wags!

FAQ

FAQed!!!

Q: What exactly do you do at Wentworth?
A: Sketch for hours, listen to a lot of music, talk on aim, occasionally play some cool riff (Doors!), complain about Matt via blog, drink juice, and most importantly talk to Kalen (Believe me I would have gone insane by now).

Q: How many cheeks does a person have?
A: Four, definitely four.

Q: What type of coffee do you drink?
A: Hmmm, I don't.

Q: If you could turn into anything what would become?
A: A Peregrin Falcon because they are mighty fast I could go home right now and talk to everyone instead of writing in this blog.

Q: What is a Grunkus, seriously?
A: Well originally it was going to be something cool. I was going to suggest it for a monster for Nick's game, but I needed a nickname for Matt.

Q: What do you have against Matt???
A: Well, right now its the fact that I caught him talking behind my back. He is just really shallow and can't formulate an opinion of his own. When he is with me he acts like I'm the greatest, but when someone else is in the room he bashes me without hesitation. Plus he is a slob and leaves everything everywhere in our dorm (that bike is coming out sometime soon). I've just been so fed up with him and his charades.

Q: What is the difference between Pacman and Ms. Pacman, really?
A: Well she has a small bow in her hair.

Q: Who is asking these questions?
A: Ah, well, uh, ok you got me I made all these questions up.

Q: So what are you going to do now that everyone knows that nobody frequently askes you anything and that your a weirdo with way to much time on your hands?
A: Same thing I always do, put on some tunes and sketch to my heart's content.

It's Over!!!!

Big Grunts

Weekend Update!!!

The Good

1. I visited colleges with Katelyn and she found a school she likes almost as much as Bay Path.
2. On Sunday my family and I ate breakfast together for the first time in months. It was excellent.
3. Katelyn got a ton of sleep this weekend!!!
4. Lost Lost Lost!!!
5. Missy did well in her horse show considering the fact that she has only ridden this horse like three times. Nice job Missa Sue!!!
6. The Audi works again. Yay!
7. Kalen is awesome!!!
8. Caramel Hershey Kisses on Pretzels with Toffee Chunks!!!

The Bad

1. I wanted to hang out with Nick on Sunday, but he was not available when I called. His cell phone went right to voice mail and his mom told me he wasn't home. He must have been out late Saturday night, which is understandable. Nick is the man and has always been there for me through out the years as a friend. Whatever the case was however, I didn't have any solid plans so my dad dragged me out into the cold rain and we fixed cars against my will instead.
2. I had to fix cars in the freezing rain all day!!!
3. Why can't I just know who that stupid guy is?!?!?!
4. Matt is my roommate and he is a grunkus
5. Katelyn was a wee bit grumpy on Friday because her parents are wicked mean to her!!! So I didn't get my "run and jump into my arms" hug that I longed for all last week. I know it seems selfish, but it's wicked lonely here because Matt is a grunkus.
6. Ok Ok, this is the last one! Matt is a grunkus.

Sleepless in Seattle... I mean Boston... Yeah... Boston

Today's topic of discussion: Matt. He is the most annoying person when he sleeps. Matt doesn't just snore really loud like normal annoying sleeping people. There is an entire array of annoying sleeping sounds that he uses.

Here is what he does:

1. Heavy Breathing - Before Matt goes to bed he breaths very heavily, like he just ran a marathon. I kow your thinking well Matt breaths loud and deeply all the time. Believe me it gets worse when he is about to go to bed. As soon as it stops you know he is asleep.
2. Loud Snoring - After ten or so minutes Matt enters this phase. He does the typical snoring for about an hour with the occasional abrupt grunting. It isn't like a "Sawing a Log" snore; it is more like a "650 lb. Wildebeast" snore.
3. Lip Smacking - I like to call this the "Drill out your temples" phase. It seems even in his dreams he is thinking about food. In his deep sleep he chews with his mouth and smacks his lips over and over and over again like he is eating something. It's not like the usual sound of Matt eating with his mouth open. Times that sound by one hundred. Hours go by and he does this non stop. What is it with stereotypical males and food?
4. Whistling - His chewing done, he lets his jaw loose and his teeth close. Now keep in mind Matt is still breathing through his mouth. The small space between his teeth makes a nifty little whistle that drives the bravest men insane. This high pitched whistling will last maybe for an hour or so.
5. The Changeup - Now I have been kept awake by all of these noises for sometime now this semester. Typically his normal sleep pattern goes something like phases one through four and when he is done he starts all over again. So you at least know what to expect. But sometimes Matt pulls this secret weapon out of his pocket and does ten minute intrevals of any of the four stages listed above. He just subconsciously picks one at random and changes constantly between them. At least when he does one for an hour you get used to it, but with this you get combinations like: Snore, Whistle, Smack, Whistle, Smack over the course of one hour.

I have tried not to complain, but I can't sleep and it is driving me insane. Even with Boston traffic screaming by our dorm room with the windows open, Matt stills prevails as more annoying. And he wonders why I'm so happy to leave at the end of the week.

Enough foolish venting!

Pie, Laughter, and the Internet

Ok, first off, very successful weekend work wise. I designed my professional website and have a pretty solid and original design. I only have two pages done, but now that I know how to do everything the rest will go by fast. Check it out at http://myweb.wit.edu/leverb and tell me what you think.

Hmmmm, what else? Oh yeah! I ate Chocolate Mousse Pie with whipped cream, cookie crust, and shaved chocolate on top.

Katelyn's mom said one the most akward things ever yesterday. I was showing her a sketch that I drew for school. It is a drafting compass, and on the compass is vertical lettering that clearly says the brand that makes the compass. On either side of the lettering is a screw that hold the compass together. Because the drawing is scanned the line weights varied from the original. So she claimed I drew a face on the compass to show a technical object with my own creative style. No I definitely didn't. All of a sudden Katelyn and I twisted what the screws and lettering looked like and burst out laughing. Then Katelyn's mom just out of the blue says, "It's like a little guy popping out at me!" That made it all the better lol.

So I decided to compile a list of funny things Katelyn's Parents have said:
1. T: "It's so thick! The weight of it!"
2. T: "Come on Katelyn, the boy wants a piece!"
3. B: "I pounded your breast."
4. B: "You guys are fucking gay."
5. T: "It's like a little guy popping out at me!"

If I remember more I'll post them.

"Do you want to get married and run away..."

Wort, Wort, Work?

Today I skipped my morning math class because I was wicked sick, and instead of sleeping I did work. In fact I did 10 hours straight of work on a stupid cube made of chipboard. However it came out awesome and I am proud of myself...yay!!! Also for the first time ever Matt apoligized to me for being harsh over the summer. It caught me completely off guard and I wasn't expecting a comment like that for the rest of Matt's life. Mike was a heated discussion topic, and it got me really depressed. It's hard to find out that the person you thought was a good friend turns out to be completely different and you never really knew them at all. To top off the crazyness I found out some horrible news. Whenever I come to Boston things happen back home that I can't do anything about. It saddens me greatly.

Enough rambling about my day, I must get back to making six plan oblique sketches of that same stupid chipboard cube.

Burleigh Adventure Production Update: Day One

Ok, so this is definitely my first blog and I’m not exactly sure what use I will put it to. For now however, here it goes:

Today was the most unepic day ever on the Wentworth Campus. I rushed out to class wearing only flip-flops, and my pour lil’ feet got soaked beyond all comprehension. In math I had a severe coughing fit to the point of crying it hurt so bad. So off I went into the rain again to quest for robitussen and cough drops. Mmmmmmmm. After my throat was soothed, my journey took me to my architecture studio class, but again I found the evil that creates bad days. My Professor called me on not having my model, and to tell you the truth I didn’t even do one. So… into the downpour I went to get my modeling supplies (just wait it gets worse). It just so happens that when you have an iPod, cell phone, and keys in your soaking wet pants with no belt, they obey gravity as if it was their destiny. That makes walking in the rain just a little bit more annoying. My homework is endless and I am going to have two sleepless nights as I have had for the past three weeks. When I changed into dry clothes I realized that I packed all of my laundry from home except underwear (Arg, of course!!!) so I’ve been walking around commando for most of the day. Thursday night is when I get home, so I’m going to be rather raw. Lastly the biggest thing that is making my day completely miserable is the fact that I had an awesome weekend with my Kalen, and now I have to wait three days to see her again. I know that sounds sad, but I’m obsessed. It must mean something when all you can think about all day everyday is someone you love.

So I leave all of you with that, my first attempt at fitting into the blogging world. Oh, also this picture because it is my favorite and is definitely scrapbook worthy.

This one's for you Fishy!
